How do carbon atoms form many organic compounds

Carbon has four valence electrons, so it can achieve a full outer energy level by forming four covalent bonds. When it bonds only with hydrogen, it forms compounds called hydrocarbons. Carbon can form single, double, or triple covalent bonds with other carbon atoms.

Which of the following is the correct formula for Ca2+ reacting with NO2??
mariarad [96]

Answer:

B. Ca(NO2)2

Explanation:

Ions (charged atoms) combine with one another to form stable ionic compounds. In this case, calicium ion (Ca2+) is said to react with NO2, which has a charge of -1 i.e. +1-1(2) = 1-2 = -1.

This means that calcium has a charge of +2 while nitrite ion has charge of -1, hence, when they combine, they exchange their charges, which become their subscript as follows:

Ca2+ + NO2- → Ca(NO2)2

Ca(NO2)2 is a stable ionic compound called calcium nitrite. Notice that it takes two atoms of NO2- to react with one atom of Ca2+.

During which step in "Steps to Solve a Problem” should students pick a strategy to use? Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Step 3

Explanation:

I am back sorry it took me so long, I believe its Step 3 because that's were you chose your strategy, you use it in Step 4, but if its not Step 3 its Step 4

1. identifying

problem solving step: 1)__ the problem is most difficult: not in habit of asking what the problem really is; in the habit of reacting or giving up

2. representing

problem solving step: 2) __ the problem: abstract or external representation

3. strategy

problem solving step: 3) selecting an appropriate __; trial and error vs means-ends analysis

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Conductivity meter

Explanation:

All of the other choices measure pH and can tell you when the pH changes, which is how you know the neutralization reaction has occurred. A conductivity meter does not measure pH.

Why is cl2 a subcript​
vazorg [7]

Answer:

In Cl_2, the 2 is a subscript because it indicates there are 2 of the same elements. The Lewis structure would display it as Cl-Cl.

On the other hand, a superscript would indicate a specific charge.

All subscripts show the amount of the specific element there is.

An example would be O_2\\ or N_2, they both show that there are 2 of the same elements.

If the subscript is outside a parenthesis such as Ca_3(PO_4)_2 it indicates there are 2 PO_4 molecules.
